Title: Walking photo colour and possibly edit please, Pearson
Post by: Claire64 on Wednesday 08 February 23 14:14 GMT (UK)
My dad Trevor Pearson is second from the left.  I'd love to see this coloured, especially as he had bright ginger hair!  So did my uncle Alec, who is fourth from left.  The lady is nothing to do with them - is it possible to edit her out?  I love the way my dad is the only one with his socks pulled up!  It was taken at Skegness I am told.

Thank you Japeflakes, I hope the Invisible Woman doesn't turn out to be a relative!  I did ask all my family (and there were a lot of them - about 13-15 of the children went on holiday at any one time) and no one recognised her.

Tried a different approach, sharpening the boys and blurring the background. In cropping the photo I've made the dimensions 12X10. Sorry, I'm not much good at colouring so just a black and white one.
